NoPegs,

My math should be correct. The original Canned-Ohm resistor sees a TOTAL power dissapation of ~~ 7.5W. Therefore if you put 5 7.5K-ohm 3W resistors in series they are each dissapating about 1.3W @500V end-to-end. And I used metal oxide 5% ones, not metal film (not that critical for the leakage tests).
